Believe

 
I heard from my master, the Baal Shem Tov, that "belief" means the mystical attachment of the soul to the Holy One, blessed be He.  [Toldos Yaakov Yosef, Ki Tavo]



When your thoughts cling constantly to G·d, He sends you words to fix yourself and the world.

When you become a chariot for wisdom and your thoughts cling constantly to G·d, as it is written, "to Him you shall cling," [Deut 10:20] the Holy One sends you words to uplift and sweeten in order to fix yourself and the world.  [Degel Machane Ephraim]
